Going the ExtraHop for Real-Time SSL Decryption

The ExtraHop Application Delivery Assurance system is now capable of completely hardware-driven SSL decryption at network speeds up to 10Gbps

Events such as the recent hacking of U.S. Government officials’ Google Gmail accounts and Sony’s PlayStation Network as well as the RSA SecurID breach have highlighted the need for greater data security. In response, more popular applications and websites, including Facebook, Gmail, and Twitter, have made SSL encryption standard. In heavily regulated industries such as healthcare and financial services, HIPAA compliance and other data-protection laws also contribute to this elevated use of SSL encryption. In fact, according to the seventh edition of Palo Alto Networks’ Application Usage and Risk Report, more than 40 percent of businesses’ applications now are encrypted by SSL.
